Hello Kate I don’t know what you have had done but I can understand that you don’t want to talk about it. I know how you feel when you feel like your life is on hold untill you get your results I don’t know how long you have to wait. My mum used to say after my operation you have the worst over now but it doesn’t make you feel like it. I still used to worry about the results I felt I would have to have more done, Is that how you feel. I still feel like I don’t want to go outside to listen to someone preaching to me about what i should or shouldn’t do. You take it easy I will be thinking of you and sending you some hugs along with it. Lindalou
Hi LIndalou,
I had a wide local excision on the 11th March. The consultant has already said I will receive 5 weeks radiotherapy. I still have to wait until Tuesday for the results. The waiting is the worst. When do you go back for a check up?. Maybe we should listen to ipods and turn it up when people go on & on, and just nod as if we are taking in all their advice. I know people mean well and they don’t know how to handle it. Hugs Kate
Hi Kate I had a lumpectomy and Lymph Nodes removed. The specialist told me that i would have to have three to five weeks of radiotherapy. I went back on the 24th february I did consider not going and doing a runner but every one kept saying you will be okay, it don’t feel like that when your the one having things done. But when I went in dreading the news and I can understand you feeling like you do and he said i don’t have to have any radiotherapy at all. Well I hope you get good news It is nice to to talk to you I feel like I cannot talk to anyone who I know I think people think I have gone a bit mad, but I am not a loud person anyway and i cannot just talk to neighbours etc as if it isn’t anything, well it might not be to them, but I feel like my world had stopped and still i don’t want to chat to them. I send you a big hug and i will be thinking of you on the 24th march and I hope everything is okay I have to go back next year for a mammagram and to see the specialist but it might take me that long to get back to normal. Take care Lindalou
